BYU-Washington: Why it Didn’t Happen

Reading Time: 2 minutesAny team, any time, any place… right? Maybe not.  BYU’s star quarterback Zach Wilson had this statement adorned on his headband during the Cougars’ 66-14 thumping of Northern Alabama.  Wilson is leading Brigham Young to one of their best seasons in recent memory, having currently won 9 games and lost none.  Assuming a continuation of this undefeated pace, BYU would finish with their first undefeated season since 1984 and be well-positioned to make a New Years’ 6 Bowl Game.  The Cougars were a consensus top 10 team in the country before the unveiling of last Tuesday’s...

Evans supposedly accepted a multitude of bribes from financial advisors...

The WEAKEST Argument in Basketball: A Breakdown

Reading Time: 2 minutesFrank Ramsey Jim Loscutoff Tom Heinsohn Robert Horry You may have heard of some these players, you may not have.  Regardless, each of them has won at least 7 NBA championships.  Yes, that’s more than Michael Jordan himself. The argument of championship rings in basketball is one of the most overused and frankly ignorant arguments in sports.  Basketball is a team game.  It’s not one man against the world, regardless of what the major sports media companies portray.  In sports, superstars are treated as gods; they can do no wrong.  In reality, they don’t win titles...
